As I explained to you in
response to your last posting, that syntax is MySQL-specific. One way to go from Xbase (or any DBI accessible RDBMS) to CSV is to use
DBD::AnyData DBD::CSV like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use DBI;
my $dbhX = DBI->connect('dbi:XBase(RaiseError=1):');
my $dbhC = DBI->connect('dbi:CSV(RaiseError=1):');
my $select = $dbhX->prepare("SELECT * FROM inTable");
$select->execute();
$dbhC->do("CREATE TABLE outTable AS IMPORT(?)",{},$select);
__END__
Update : replaced my bad code with a working example.
my $dbhX = DBI->connect ( Xbase connection info);
my $dbhA = DBI->connect( 'dbi:AnyData:' );
$dbhA->ad_catalog('outfile','CSV',$output_filename);
my $sth = $dbhX->prepare( Select SQL );
$sth->execute();
$dbhA->do("CREATE TABLE outfile AS SELECT * FROM ?",{}, $sth);
